DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF EIGHT-AXLE WELL CARS WITH RESPECT TO VARIATIONS IN THE POSITIONING OF VERY HEAVY LOADS

DINAMICHESKIE OSOBENNOSTI VOS'MIOSNYKH TRANSPORTEROV S RAZLICHNYM RAZMESCHENIEM NA NIKH TYAZHELOVESNYKH GRUZOV

The results are given of experimental research on the dynamics of an eight-axle well car with a carrying capacity of 120 metric tons when very heavy loads are variously positioned off-center on the car. Recommendations are given on conditions for hauling such loads on a well car (a type of flatcar with a lowered center platform).
